Schedule Your Visit

Brow, injectable and eyelid sources to know before you walk in

If you live around Redmond and are thinking about a consultation with a facial plastic surgeon, the visit goes better when you arrive prepared. Pick the two or three things you most want answered and keep them handy for the room.

Start with what you want changed and what bothers you most. Then read a few solid sources so you know the vocabulary. If you are weighing brow work, a paper on a supra-brow combined with an infra-brow lift approach for Asian women shows the kind of detail a surgeon may talk through with you. If injectables are on your list, consensus recommendations on pretreatment and posttreatment care for facial injections give you something to compare against what a practice tells you. For eyelids and the other procedures you may ask about, the Cleveland Clinic list of cosmetic plastic surgery procedures is a plain place to begin.

The procedure question pages

If you want more help getting ready, the question pages on rhinoplasty, neck lift, ear surgery, eyelid surgery and chin augmentation each end with things to ask your surgeon.
